As one of the true highlights of the global yachting calendar, the Monaco Yacht Show is the time of year when we see exciting concepts from builders who are pushing the limits of the industry, and this one is particularly special. Falcon Tenders, the British full-custom superyacht tender builder, in collaboration with American startup GreenJoy Studio, is set to reveal the Falcon Shuttle. This is an entirely new category of bespoke catamaran tender for superyachts and will be fully revealed on September 25.
GreenJoy’s founding partners Philip Greenberg and Ivan Joy believe the new Falcon Shuttle concept will “disrupt a segment of the yachting industry by introducing unprecedented functionality that promises to change the way owners travel with their yachts.” This new concept will likely be of particular interest to car collectors.
This new concept tender appears to have a large space in the back, akin to a pickup truck, inside which owners can transport their vehicles from superyacht to shore. So an owner could feasibly spend summer in the Mediterranean, exploring the French Riviera in their Ferarri or Rolls-Royce, before heading to the Caribbean during the winter and having their vehicles be just as accessible.
Built exclusively by Falcon Tenders — a company known for producing some of the finest custom limousines and open crewed launches — the bespoke nature of the concept ensures each tender will be the ideal size to suit certain vehicles.

“I am really excited by the unusual nature of the Falcon Shuttle concept,” says Mark Pascoe, founder of Falcon Tenders. “GreenJoy Studio is an innovative start-up bringing fresh ideas and new thinking to the superyacht industry. This concept reinforces the Falcon Tenders’ brand ethos of creating individual special tenders for discerning clients.”
Details on the new Falcon Shuttle remain relatively slim, however, it’s likely all will become clear on Wednesday, September 25 at the annual Falcon Tenders cocktail reception. Here a video will be shown explaining the new tender. For those not making it to Monaco Yacht Show this year, the video will be publicly released following the party.
